Benchmarks: System and Gaming
Fusion Silencio is a strong all-rounder, and a GeForce GTX 970, despite well-publicised memory 'problems,' makes this a highly capable gaming rig at a sub-£1,000 price point.

| Extreme | 71.1 | 46.2 | 20.3 | 13.3 | 25.3 | 71.9 | 46.2 | |
As a general rule of thumb, the GTX 970 allows in-game quality settings to be cranked up to maximum, and in most titles you can still expect a return of over 60 frames per second at a full-HD resolution.
